You have network issues. DNS doesn't seem to be working. FileBot can't work if the web service at app.filebot.net cannot be resolved or is not reachable.
DNS is a basic network setting so you can use Google to find solutions for these kinds of network issues. Unfortunately, I can't diagnose the problem for you remotely.
restarted the PC and it's working fine now. not sure what the issue could be or how it could be a networking issue, but i guess it's just one of those things.
also, relevant but didn't mention. using PIA VPN. but didn't matter if on or off before. restarting worked however. so i guess we can see what happens. thanks!
